ABOUT VINCENT:.
Born in Albuquerque in '58 & grew up on the Navajo reservation of To'hajiilee,(Canoncito Band of Navajos) 30 miles west.His parents/grandparents were silversmiths before him,he was taught by his Mother & still uses tools passed down to him by his ancestors & also makes his own stamps,which give his jewelry an extension of his own identity, onto the sterling.
He is one artist who never creates two pieces exactly alike & is known for his very identifiable hand stamp work that takes precision,accuracy & a good eye to do, what he does.. Vince has a look that belongs to only him & even though there are a lot of artists that stamp,there is no one that does to silver what he does nor the look it's done with. He "owns" his style & is one of the more collectible,when it comes to sterling Navajo jewelry.
DESCRIPTION:
The tooled butterfly is simply displayed by itself upon a wide 3 wire split shank spread,where all eyes are on this tastefully made piece of art.No,it's not over the top in size,nor weight,but still has enough presence that can't help but be noticed!
The shank is not made with heavy gauge wire,so it's adjustable.
For those who love the look of Santa Fe & will compliment any Santa Fe style of dress in a western style fashion!
